lights dancing on the horizon, south bound geese skimming the tree tops and
young children practicing “Trick or treat, smell my feet” for trunk and treats
popping up in church parking lots. These
are but a few signs October is
here. This month’s At Large chapter
meeting will be brief with the focus being state convention travel logistics
and our Friday night reception. Our next
regular meeting will be our November 19,
thankfulness meeting. In the meantime I
encourage you to read the latest Braille Monitor especially our own Julie O’s
article on accessible textbooks and check out the link to The Blind Life review
of Light Sword canes.</span></p>

forward to sharing an hour with you soon! Remember to visit the chapter and affiliate Facebook
groups. Also, take a walk outside and
notice the changing fragrances and
soundscapes as Summer transitions to Fall.
Hear the leaves crunch beneath your shoes as you walk through your
neighborhood and the aroma of fresh mulch as gardens are prepared for winter
dormancy. </span></p>
